It is disinformation when you chose not to state this the modification to the bike network is for winter months.

Somehow discard winter … and seasonal transformations of lanes done the years before also.

Polarizing citizens is not serving progress of our city… as well as politics.

I sincerely hope we consolidate our active mobility network, all season in Montreal.

For that, we need serious planing of mobility for all, and a collective effort to behave better in our inner city travel.

The later will not come by polarization on adjusting 200m of road for 120 days in winter.

Simon,

Montreal is a Nordic city.

I invite you to compare the the amount of km of summer tracks vs winter tracks last year. Over 300 km.

The difference of Bixi station in summer and winter is 750.

The mayor of Outremont is, like me, a bike advocate… and leading a city that adapts along seasons.

Ces problèmes à chaque coin de rue, qui sont des «opportunités de design».
Cette approche de patentage que nous avons héritée de nos ancêtres.
Cette expertise des festivals et du temporaire.
Le cycle des saisons et ces paysages en mutation continue.
Ce rythme qui nous garde vivant.

Merci Montréal.

And we are all very jealous of the exceptional cycling ethics of the danish riders.

I was sharply reminded the rules when I tried to turn left on a red light as a cyclist.

Better mobility is a collective effort. And Copenhagen mastered it.

Yes indeed.

Soraya has worked hard to get the STM settled and now on the « street crisis » of homelessness with winter coming very early.

I am confident that Mobility for all, including cycling, a key to 15 minutes cities , will get better in the next 4 years as it will be planned !

On ne doit pas attendre 2040 pour changer nos milieux de vie. ; )

Sécurisons les traverses piétonnes entre le mile end et Outremont . Un de nos engagements :

ensemblemtl.org/actualites/v...

Voir le carte logistique urbaine et le rôle de Saint-Urbain.

Pour Saint-Urbain, il faudra justifier pourquoi on a contredit les orientations établies dans le PUM2050 ( axe logistique prioritaire ) et votée en février 2025… ainsi que les raisons pour lesquelles on a choisi d’intervenir sur cette rue au lieu de Du Parc qui doit être sécurisé.

Le réseau cyclable est un atout de Montréal, et cela est amplifié en été .

Par ailleurs, la mobilité des citoyens et des biens doit être planifiée pour l’ensemble des parcours et non pas un seul mode.

Sinon on compromet les TC, les services de sécurité et de santé, les livraisons et les collectes.

On est d’accord sur la prise en considération de tous les parcours dans un quartier. Et en particulier leur inter-relation selon les saisons.

Je crois qu’un parcours cycliste le long de la rive ou sur Fleury restera toujours plus pertinent qu’un trajet sur Henri-Bourassa dans ce secteur.

We will see in 4 years if all the disinformation you read from a political entity, lowering the bar in democracy was right.

Ask yourself why they promoted an audit proposal as dangerous, as they knew there was 2 existing at city hall .

And why they blocked 3 years in a row mobility planning.

Pretending that the cycling streets are « in danger » on the Plateau was a disgraceful disinformation strategy to divert from the fact that the administration never planned at the scale of the district in 16 years.

A shameful disinformation political tactic « that was all there ».

La sécurisation des parcours sur Du Parc ( entre Mont-Royal et Van Horne ) était largement prioritaire à Saint-Urbain.

Saint-Urbain n’est d’ailleurs pas identifié comme prioritaire en mobilité active dans le PUM 2050.

En été, il est nécessaire d’implanter des alternatives est-ouest sur Rachel.

And guess what, this Local mobility plan, dated 2009, was not planned by any of the Projet Montreal officials.

It’s time to update the plan. the way we travel, the context and also the way we work as changed.

Mobility is a complex challenge. Let’s get to work.

Best regards.

I invite you to read my open letter on mobility in the same newspaper.

« Stop moving in circles to plan Montreal’s mobility. »

I teach, I practice and I research about city transformation … and I even ran for election.

I know that we have data.
I also know it is underused by the city

Specifically on the Plateau, my district, were the last local plan was done 16 years ago and was never updated to date.

I am one of those users.
I biked 350 km in my district during the campaign and over 100 bixi rides.

I know which street are safe.
But I am also convinced that we can do better by repairing surfaces, plan connections between lanes and with context… and all behave better in our mobility in MTL.

Yes, and it is important to share the data.
Why did we learn only after the election about the 2 studies on bike lane security ?

Leading is about making good choices.

We should have worked on Rachel and Du Parc, before Saint-Urbain.

When you don’t plan, you make such priority mistakes.
